Hmm it's possible.. I'm not sure, maybe it was modified since it's release
and that version of the page is not up to date with what it can actually do?

Their stocks have never been high.. it's currently been around the $.20
range for the past couple months. That was until they raised their pricing
and the management started to buy and sell some stock to get people
interested in investment.

Well, that's something else we can add to their crap list. ;) I noticed
that too when I went through it the second time. I think they themselves
had to submit that info, so maybe JP typed it up since he's the CFO..

That's what I was getting at originally. I don't think AWCom would trust
anyone else to write a company summary about what they do unless they
actually know. I would very much expect the CFO, JP, to be writting that.
I would also expect that, as Jeremy said, a much better grammatical level
then 5th grade. At least high school material.

Why would they risk that? It would be stupid since your customers are your
source of revenue, your only source of revenue. If your company gets no
customers, stocks go down, the company goes bankrupt. If they don't like
the verbal criticism that people give them, they really shouldn't be a
company then should, they? It's not like all of us go around saying F this
and F that. There's a couple of us that tell them, "hey, you know your plan
isn't acceptable with what you're currently offering. Here's a better idea.
I know you're having a rough time, but doing this will put off a majority of
your customers" And it's been very true. The user count went from 500 some
odd people to about 200-300 some odd people.. that's half the user base. I
expect by the time the user accounts expire it'll drop another 100.
It's not our fault they've made bad buiness decisions and we're criticising
what they're doing. They really need to think and do things that help
promote. That's one of they keys to running a successful business. Another
thing is to lower prices to increase demand. Thus you have more users, then
increase it to something that everyone can afford so you don't lose that use
base you just gained (i.e. raise from $20 -> $35, not $20 -> $70 and their
original plan of $20 -> $120). Companies have liability if they did do bad
things like say something about their customers. The customers paid for
use, and they have every right to do and say whatever they wish, especially
if they're extremely displeased with the services. And the company can't
just go sue for slander, because of the freedom of speech. There's a lot of
things that could happen, but that's just what I think :D

Can someone tell me how saying idiocy is a racial remark? Just need
confirmation that idiocy means that the said action is stupid. Unless I
missed something and it's somehow related to a racial remark in some odd
negated alternate universe where idiots are a race.

Well, LoL. Someone kept pestering me to go see their build. When I finally
gave up with my "ugh, fine" comment I went to see. When I got there I was
looking around and saw the majority of building to be of stone1, which
doesn't look very good with the other textures he was using. So I told him
that I didn't like it, then he kept dragging it on and said I was one of the
only ones who didn't blah blah blah, then his friend started telling me to
shut up.. heated discussion later, I told his friend a bad thing, mainly
because I wasn't talking to him. Then he has one of his friends gram me and
I asked her to stop, she didn't, she said she was a better builder, blah
blah blah. Asked me why I critisized his building, and I told her that it
was very ugly with stone1, then she said more about her being a better
builder. I told her that if he wanted me to come, then expect an opinion
about bad textures and whatnot, not that I'm just going to go "GREAT!" I
mean if it's bad, I'm going to tell you why I think it's bad. But he
couldn't take it, so I told her he was an idiot in short. Then she said
that's a racial slur, blah blah blah. That's basically it. That set it up
for ya?

Yeah, I'm going to stop now. I said "Stone1 looks very ugly" meaning with
all his textures.. plus it looks horrible overall. Then he goes "you're the
only one who thinks so!" But then I remembered he needed my help fixing his
parking lot (it looked horrible.. overlaps, bad colors, etc). Then he has
all his friends harass me because he asked for my opinion and didn't like
it.

Not as bad as the gor world list. I believe most of those worlds don't

Xelagots do it quite well if you choose the propdump format instead of the
Xelagot format. http://www.imatowns.com/xelagot/xelagot_x1.html
For registries, you need to have all the models on your computer.. and use
Andras' beautiful registry generator.

I didn't say that it wasn't now did I? There's also more expensive hosting
plans, did I mention those either? No I wanted to keep it short. $3 a
month isn't a whole lot, calm down. You could just get it for a month too,
think of that? You don't have to do everything on a yearly basis, contrary
to the common misconception.

Well, then re-logging would require the closing and restarting of AW.
That's the only reason it'd do it, other than some other conflict I'm not
aware of.
Tell them to close and restart AW, see if that helps.

*notices the slave page says no nudity yet has a naked woman on it* A bit
hypocritical don't you think?

Still nudity none-the-less. I've seen breasts yes, but children haven't,
and you need to protect the children. There's probably worse stuff in links
and sigs all over AW but yours was the only one I saw recently :(

Well it doesn't need to be in his sig for the activeworlds newsgroups since
this is used by children. I've met some pretty ignorant people, but this
takes the cake. How could you not see how see that? At least I'm not
attacking the freaking gor part of it, and that it says "Slaves." What kind
of image is this in general?
Hey if you're going to attack me too for caring, I might as well have
multiple points for what I'm saying.

What about the children that aren't breast fed?
Omfg.. not alter their minds? When they see slaves and see the part that
says "my slaves," they might also start thinking it's ok to mistreat others.
Or to enslave women. Some people are like that you know, not everyone was
raised to not believe everything they read.
Of course it's not offensive to you, you made it, and you partake in it.
Fine, I give up, I just don't realize why you can't disable it for >these<
newsgroups. A few clicks and you're done, no more fuss, no more worry, no
more indecent exposure, yadda yadda yadda, blah blah blah. Since you don't
care and it shows, no matter what I say, you wouldn't change it. Ignorance
is bliss I suppose.

Well, that said, what about posts to the other newsgroups?

That'd be nice, I'd like that. Would you do that please? Just for an
advanced warning that stuff may not be suitable for certain people.
